what will a bone stock '06 Focus ZX5 ses (auto) do in accerlation tests like 0-60 and 1/4 ml.? ... Just wondering.
I love this little focus, it's a blast to drive and I used to drive only VW's in the past and also own a 3 series BMW but I enjoy driving my focus more.

can't say I ever ran my car stock. It wasn't stock when i bought. If I remember correctly my first run in it (shorty headers, hollowed out cat, cone filter, and custom crappy bent magnaflow exhaust) was a 16.5 I think or a 16.3. Ether way I was able to get it into the 15.9's. best run to date was 15.7 @ 88mph, That was with untuned cam gears and get this a bomz cold air intake lol. I kept switching between the stock with cone filter and that CAI. I could only muster a 15.8 once I put the BOMz on there I hit a 15.7. Now just don't go thinking that a crap e-bay intake will make your car fast it won't. The only reason I probably went faster was because I wan't making has much HP as before which in turn let me hook up better. I have not been to the track in two yrs since the last Fun Ford Weekend that was ever held in houston. I was the only focus there that year what a pity. I blew spider gears out the diff on my first practice run. I wasn't even there 20 mins lol. I'm really interested in what the car will run now. I must be lucky to run the times I have with such few mods. I know I am making alot more power now and better times are to come.

new best time on a closed course is 15.18 @ 96 mph now that I figured out how to launch the svtf. I've always been good at launching but the SVTF is very tricky

I've gotten wheel hop with both traction control disabled and enabled.

I can't get it to leave the line good at all but my 1# was 15.9 2# 15.7 3# was 15.8
is that good?

It's respectable for what it is... but as you know we always want more... (hp) and less (time) !
But for an auto, 1st time, no manual shift.... BTW At what rpm does it shift at?

I'm not sure what the RPMs were. I don't have a tach yet.

I just got back from Maple Grove. This was my first time out in this car. I have a stock '05 zx3 w/a 2.0pzev, and auto trans. Had a 3/4 tank of gas, didn't touch tire pressure, and didn't manual shift.
